Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and in fact numerous podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired comprehensive medical instruction with a stress on issues regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to manage complications extending from typical conditions such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical training which give them the practical experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and avoid a large number of conditions which the feet normally encounter.
